Although the people who beat him were right in front of his eyes, and his disciples and grandchildren all saw it, and could all testify for him now, yet these people were completely unable to do anything about Han Mo's claims.
It was only now that Wang Daolu finally understood what it meant to twist black into white and call a deer a horse.
"So many people saw it on the river embankment that day, it wasn't just us!"
"Yes, if your Lord doesn't believe us, why don't you go to the river embankment now and ask?"
Seeing Jiang Yan's strange smile, even Wang Daolu's disciples and grandchildren couldn't stand it and immediately shouted in unison.
Seeing that they were still so reckless, Han Mo sneered inwardly.
It seemed that these guys still hadn't seen the situation clearly, and they didn't understand that without that divine skin, they were not much stronger than street thugs.
In the past few years, in order to extort money, how many of them had blood on their hands?
The people in the city had long hated them to the bone. If anyone were willing to testify for them now, it would truly be a ghost.
"Lord Pang, what do you say?"
Han Mo sneered and looked at Pang Yue again.
The matter had escalated to this point, and even if Pang Yue didn't proceed, he couldn't resolve it. At this time, he could only brace himself and go forward.
"Since that's the case, I think we should take a walk along the river embankment. I'd also like to see how Lord Han built the embankment without using the money and grain from the treasury!"
"Since that's the case, then let's go to the embankment and take a look!"
"You wait for me in the mansion, I'll be back soon!"
Although Han Mo hadn't expected Zhe Yourong to arrive so suddenly and silently.
However, at this time, it was not the time for reminiscing.
Ever since Pang Yue left last time, he had been planning for today.
Now that Pang Yue had finally fallen into his trap, he dared not relax at all at this time.
After all, according to his agreement with the emperor, if he couldn't achieve anything within a year, he would only be able to be promoted slowly step by step.
If that were the case, facing the imminent world-shattering changes, how could he guarantee his own safety and that of his family?
Therefore, no matter what, he couldn't let any stain fall on him.
Even if this matter involving Zhou Ding ended in nothing, in the end...
"Then be careful..."
Although she was worried about Han Mo's safety, seeing Han Mo's confident eyes, Zhe Yourong still said softly.
"Don't worry, I'll be back soon, it won't take long!"
Han Mo smiled, and then turned to leave the yamen with his men.
Seeing Han Mo lead his men away, Wang Daolu and Pang Yue also quickly followed.
When the group arrived at the construction site on the river beach under Han Mo's lead, there were almost no laborers on the western river embankment.
Almost everyone was concentrated on the east bank, busy under the command of Gao Zhiyao in an orderly manner.
"Lord Han, your embankment is really quite interesting..."
Looking at the newly dug gap on the west bank, even Pang Yue sneered.
"Han has already submitted the specific plan to the Transportation Command. However, I don't know what's wrong with the plan, and the document has not received a reply yet. I wonder if your Lord has seen this document?"
Looking at Pang Yue's insincere smile, Han Mo directly retorted.
"Cough—cough—cough—"
"I think we should get back to the point. Go ahead and find a few laborers for me!"
He naturally knew about the document, and it was he who had it intercepted.
The purpose was to make Han Mo look bad, but he didn't expect that this kid could still work vigorously without using the treasury's money and grain.
However, many things could not be done well. At this moment, being questioned by Han Mo, he indeed felt embarrassed.
He simply coughed a few times and prepared to change the subject directly.
"As your Lord wishes!"
Looking at Lü Ying's inquiring eyes, Han Mo sneered and said.
"You guys go with them, just find a few eloquent people!"
This matter was related to whether Pang Yue's subsequent plan could be successfully implemented. How could Pang Yue let only Han Mo's men choose?
Seeing them whispering to each other, Han Mo showed no signs of nervousness. Instead, he took out a copper coin from his sleeve and played with it in his hand.
Upon receiving Pang Yue's instructions, his trusted subordinates immediately strode forward and rushed into the midst of the laborers.
Not long after, under the selection of Pang Yue's confidants, more than a dozen shirtless laborers were brought before the two by Pang Yue's confidants.
"Your humble subject pays his respects to your Lord!"
These laborers did not recognize Pang Yue, but they recognized Han Mo.
When they came before the two, they immediately bowed to Han Mo in unison.
"This is Lord Pang Yue, the judge of the Transportation Command. He is here today to ask you some questions. Answer whatever he asks, and no one is allowed to conceal anything!"
"Don't worry, I'm just asking casually, don't be nervous."
Pang Yue naturally understood Han Mo's words, but he didn't believe that this kid Han Mo, who had only been in Neihuang for a month, could control all the people in the county.
"Your humble subject greets Lord Pang!"
Although these laborers did not understand how high an official the judge of the Transportation Command was, seeing that Han Mo was so polite to Pang Yue, they were all a little nervous.
"I ask you, did you all see what happened the day before yesterday when Immortal Wang Xianchang of Neihuang was beaten on the opposite river embankment?"
Pang Yue coughed dryly. In order to help these laborers relax a little, he had tried his best to make his voice sound more amiable.
But even so, facing a court official who had suddenly appeared, these people were all looking nervous...
"We saw it! We all saw what happened that day!"
After the laborers exchanged glances, a slightly older laborer stepped forward cautiously, cupped his hands towards Pang Yue, and then said.
"Then, old sir, did you clearly see the face of the assailant?"
"Not only did I see it clearly, but I also recognize him!"
"You recognize him?"
Pang Yue's breathing suddenly hitched, and his face was filled with surprise and joy.
At this moment, even Han Mo's heart tightened.
It couldn't be such a coincidence...
"Yes, if it were someone else, this old man might not recognize him, but he revealed his identity when he left. He is Wang Xingye, a great general under Li Mao'er!"
Wang Xingye?
After hearing him say that, Han Mo almost burst out laughing. He really didn't expect that Lü Ying's methods of doing things were quite strong...
"You're talking nonsense! Wang Xingye's head is still hanging on the flagpole! How could he come down to beat someone? Show me how you do it!"
Pang Yue's nose was almost crooked with anger. What kind of people were these?
Weren't they treating him like a fool and playing with him?
It was obvious that this was Han Mo's doing!
He really wanted to grab Han Mo's head and ask him properly, do I look like an idiot?
